Talks between the owners of Penguin and Random House could lead to a merger within the next two weeks. When opting for a name they should definitely call themselves Random Penguin House.

Kitedingo says: I'm not sure this is a totally serious opinion, but for what its worth I think it would be a real shame if Penguin was to lose its iconic identity. They are one of the best loved publishing houses and I believe their brand has a special place in many book lovers' hearts. It would be such a shame to see that go through a merger.
